What Are the Benefits?
Benefit #1: Comprehensive Format Settings
The text note feature offers a wide range of format settings to help you effortlessly organize the hierarchy of your notes. From font style to size, spacing, and more, you have complete control over the appearance of your text. Additionally, you can easily apply heading settings of varying levels with just a few taps, making it a breeze to structure your notes and create a seamless flow of information.
Benefit #2: To-Do Lists
In addition to the traditional bulleted and numbered lists available in the List menu, we have also introduced a convenient tool that allows you to quickly set up and prioritize your to-do list. As you complete each task, simply tap the checkbox to indicate that it has been accomplished, helping you track your progress and stay organized with ease.
Benefit #3: Type While Recording
Similar to the handwritten note, the text note also allows you to create recordings while simultaneously typing notes, providing you with a seamless way to capture important information. This is particularly useful during meetings or lectures, as it enables you to efficiently capture and organize information in real-time, ensuring that you never miss any crucial details.
Benefit #4: Split View with NeoReader
NeoReader now offers compatibility with the text note feature. You can now easily access Split View, allowing you to have the text note open on the other half of the screen. Similarly, you can also access the split screen mode with the text note while using a third-party app. This makes it incredibly convenient to have your note-taker with typed text right alongside your other tasks or content, facilitating seamless multitasking.
